Notes: Based on total issued share capital of 758,010,025 ordinary shares (as at 11 February 2025). A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted towards votes cast “For” or “Against” a resolution. The total voting rights of the Company on 11 February 2025 were 758,010,025. As set out in the Notice of AGM, the Board is ensuring the Company complies with European ownership and control requirements by exercising its powers to suspend voting rights of certain UK and non-EU nationals. At the time of the AGM, the level of ownership by EU persons was 36.95% and accordingly, easyJet has suspended voting rights in respect of certain shares ("Affected Shares") held by non-EU shareholders and the polling results noted above reflect these actions. Such Affected Shares continued to count in the calculation of issued share capital and total voting rights of the Company.   Board & Committee changes Moni Mannings OBE did not put herself forward for re-election at the AGM and stood down from the Board at the conclusion of the meeting. The previously announced changes to the membership of the Committees also came into effect at the conclusion of the meeting with membership now as follows: Audit Committee: David Robbie (Chair), Sue Clark, Catherine Bradley, Dr Detlef Trefzger. Remuneration Committee: Sue Clark (Chair), Ryanne van der Eijk, Harald Eisenächer, David Robbie.
